[quote=Anonymous]Former Bay Area resident who worked in MV for 10 years. First off -- "the salary is about $200K which is enough to rent a decent townhome there, " -- are you sure you can afford a TH around there on $200K? You might want to check again. Maybe you mean a rental? CA schools as a whole are under funded. Expect to shell out $1K a year for "donations". As for the liberal education, I can't speak to that since I moved out when the kids were young, but since there are a ton of immigrants out in SV, the overall vibe is not uber progressive like SF city. But, if you are going to work for a tech company out in SV, you can expect some uber liberal ideals in the workplace. I see the pronouns now in the profiles of coworkers (I still work with people there), and their HR policies are pretty liberal. I would check out the school and district websites to see what they are pushing.[/quote]
